Hunter x Hunter Synopsis

Gon Freecss has a goal of finding his father, who abandoned him for a life of adventure. In order to do this though, he has to become a Hunter. By becoming one, he has to pass the Hunter Exam. This can be very challenging because only one candidate among one hundred thousand will become a Hunter. Most applicants end up being injured, and worse, being killed.

Gon managed to befriend other potential Hunters like the enigmatic Killua, the vengeful Kurapika, and Leorio, who is an aspiring doctor. Despite their differences with each other, they share the common goal of becoming a Hunter. They embark on an adventure together in the perilous journey ahead of them.
